Get Your Own Mug

This month, if you refer a patient to our practice, you will get one of these beautiful Dr. Don Wood mugs filled with fresh flowers, delivered to you! We work hard to earn the trust of our patients, and the highest compliment you can pay us is the referral of family and friends. If you refer someone, make sure they tell us who referred them, and enjoy your beautiful flowers!

Project Patriot

You may already be aware that Cypress Family Dental and Dr. Wood are proud of our troops, and are actively involved in supporting them as much as we can. We have paired with the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) Susan B. Anthony Chapter in support of their Project Patriot. The goal of Project Patriot is to collect donations to send gift boxes to soldiers overseas. Dozens of boxes have been sent, and the DAR have received many thank yous from these soldiers. Below is a sampling of some of these letters:

"I just wanted to thank you for the care package that you sent to one of the soldiers here in Iraq. I just happened to get your card and wanted to thank you for your kindness and thoughtfulness, receiving these packages are a huge morale booster for the military men and women. Again I want to thank you for the packages." --Derek Elrod, via email from Iraq

"I cannot express to you the depth of my gratitude for your efforts in displaying your chapter's appreciation of the American Soldier. I am the Company Commander of Delta Company 132nd Brigade Support Battalion, the Regulators. It is inspiring to see and feel the support of your chapter for my troops and me.

It is nice to receive healthy snacks such as the ones you have included. Thank you for the great selection of snacks that we all will enjoy. They will bring a welcomed break from the military foods we are accustomed to." --Craig W. Jansen, Captain, US Army

"I just wanted to say thanks for all the boxes received. I brought them straight to our break room and told all soldiers around that the boxes were there (at the time no one really had received anything so I wante to spread it around to all).

I was going to get my camera but it became obvious real quick that they weren't going to last that long! Needless to say, they were a hit.

Anyway I wanted to thank you and your group for your support. You can see it in soldiers eyes; they are happy to get something but amazed it was sent. I hope they carry that caring message with them all deployment.

Well thank you and God bless!" --Ian (last name illegible), via mail

"I received your Care Package today and would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and generosity you have shown my Soldiers and Myself. I have given out the items that you sent in your Care Package and the Soldiers loved them. We appreciate all that you and all others like yourself do for us Soldiers that are deployed and away from our families, especially during the Holiday Season. I will be sending pictures for you once I get them developed of our Soldiers receiving items from your Care Package. I hope this letter finds you well and in good Health." --Christopher P. Bryant, SGT, USA, Operations NCO
